air/co2 shifter
i was wondering if any ony using these shifters are having trouble with missed shifts when attaching the cylinder to the shift rod pulling the shaft forword. the bracket to hold the cylinder is bolted to the water pump.

I have that bracket, and I have to run 130 psi to be safe. It sure looks good though. If I had to do it over I think I'd mount it on the shift lever instead.

We have run CO2 and NO2 in John's shifter (bolted to shift-rod/water pump) for over 2-years now...NO PROBLEMS...
We run 160psi though...

I put a guage up by the other guages...and also have a high pressure guage at the bottle...
If you already have a pressure regulator with your air shifter kit...you can add a washer under the spring to raise the pressure...
Doug at Spencer Cycle was going to make an adjustable regulator...don't know if he did it yet???
Here are some pictures...some are of a Bbusa...the ZX12 install has the cylinder going forward to the supplied bracket that bolts to the water pump...
